The Green Hairstreak butterfly, seen April to June. Found over much of the UK. My favourite place to look for them in the North-west is Whixall Moss in Shropshire. #Butterflies

Green Hairstreak (Callophrys rubi), our only green butterfly. These were taken last year on Bilberry in the Pentland Hills south of Edinburgh. On the wing from mid-April to mid-July. Not too long to wait now. #Butterflies #Invertebrates #Nature #Photography #Nikon @savebutterflies.bsky.social

Yeah Clench that’s more like it, get ‘em with the species epithets
Rather more drab lycaenids, labeled “Callophrys detesta” and “Callophrys miserabilis” ( hallmarks of a taxonomist who has had it up to here with these goddamn butterflies)

The Green Hairstreak (Callophrys rubi). Found across Europe, Asia, and Africa...opportunistic nectar feeders. While their underside is colorful, the dorsal side is dull brown...fuzz on the thorax & abdomen provides thermoregulation. #nature #butterfly #wildlife #photo #biology
The Green Hairstreak (Callophrys rubi) is a master of visual deception. While many butterflies lean into flashy colors to attract attention, this little gem uses its unique appearance to vanish into the scenery. A Shimmering Illusion Despite its name, the Green Hairstreak isn't actually green—at least not in the way you’d expect. Its wings are structurally colored, meaning microscopic scales reflect light to create that iconic emerald hue. However, this brilliance is reserved for the undersides. When it rests and closes its wings, it blends seamlessly into the foliage.
